Staff Product Designer, Search and Conversational AI

At LinkedIn, our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business. The work location of this role is hybrid, meaning it will be performed both from home and from a LinkedIn office on select days, as determined by the business needs of the team. 

This role will be based in Sunnyvale, San Francisco or New York.

The workforce is evolving at a scale and pace unseen since the Industrial Revolution, and LinkedIn Search is uniquely positioned to help. Join us as we transform LinkedIn Search from a traditional jobs and people lookup tool into an indispensable, AI-powered partner that connects 1B+ global users to economic opportunity.

• Rapid Interactive Prototyping: Utilize advanced prototyping tools and AI-driven workflows to simulate live model responses, build interactive concepts, and validate dynamic user flows in rapid experimentation loops.

• Drive Vision Through Systems Thinking: Apply a rigorous systems-thinking approach to ensure individual UI components integrate seamlessly into a cohesive, global product ecosystem. Drive clarity out of ambiguity and shepherd radical, divergent ideas from initial concept to launch.

• Design for Responsible Global Impact: Craft visual, motion, and interaction patterns that set industry benchmarks. Ensure every experience adheres to world-class standards in localization, usability, safety, accessibility, and ethical AI.
